Police: No arrests expected Wednesday in bar fight

No arrests will be made Wednesday in last week’s bar fight reportedly involving four LSU football players and four men injured in the brawl, Baton Rouge Police Department Sgt. Donald Stone said.

Stone answered questions about what would happen Wednesday via email early Wednesday morning.

Stone said in the email that police investigators would continue the interview process Wednesday but it was unknown who exactly would be interviewed.

Baton Rouge Police Chief Dewayne White said Tuesday the four LSU football players implicated in the incident gave their statements to police Tuesday at State Police headquarters and gave investigators the names of at least a dozen witnesses.

Stone added, based on facts investigators already have gathered, “there is a good chance that when the investigation is over arrests will be made” and that people could be booked with simple battery and second-degree battery.
